Given that there are many VGA-related (and to some lesser extent, accelleration) questions around, Michael Abrash - Graphics Programming Black Book. Its a bit old, but a good read nevertheless, and holds a lot of information not just limited to the VGA.

Oh and, its free

By the way, could propose books in the local language not only in english.Perhaps in italian, french, spanish languages and so on...

so on... yah romanian

I think it says somewhere on this forum that it is dedicated to English speakers only. Besides, books in other languages would have a lot of their original meaning lost in translation, so I think it's better to just not flunk your English classes than to read something that's not in English.
How do you even say things like "Kernel", "Interrupt request routine" or "Protected mode" in Romanian? I'm Romanian and every time I think about translating something it comes out sounding like something that might sound as an insult if I said it to someone I don't know.

Hard to find, but it is 10000% worth it. It covers just about ALL of the BIOS interrupt routines + source code, as well as just about everything you need to know about the A20, Video memory, RS-232, Printing, FPU, Harddrives, and of course floppy drives.

Hmm, I would definitely not recommend "Assembly Language Step-by-Step".

The book has 613 pages. After reading the first 400, I had barely seen anyAssembly code or theory. In my opinion, the title is misleading and wouldmore accurately be called "Editors, system administration, number systemsand a bit of Assembly".

I recommend "http://www.drpaulcarter.com/pcasm/", which is really good.
